Emotional Sobriety 12 Steps in 4 Hours

Please read the following information carefully, as some of the information has changed.

The workshop will take place on the following dates at 8:30 PM beginning this Sunday:

AUGUST 17, 2014

AUGUST 24, 2014: If you need a sponsor or sharing partner for the workshop, please stay on the line following this meeting in order for us to assign everyone to someone. Sharing partners are to be another person of the same gender. Ideally, your usual sponsor or sharing partner will also be attending this workshop.

August 31, 2014: OPTIONAL MEETING TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ON COMPLETING THE FOURTH/FIFTH STEP. THIS DATE HAS BEEN LEFT OPEN TO GIVE MORE TIME FOR EVERYONE TO COMPLETE THEIR 5TH STEP WITH THEIR SPONSOR/SHARING PARTNER.

If you are calling from any other country and would like the number, please let Shira know.

The meeting format is based on the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous and the historical research of Wally P. It recreates the four 1-hour beginners meetings that were so effective in AA in the 1940s.

We will be using this book: Back to Basics: The Alcoholics Anonymous Beginners’ Meetings: “Here are the steps we took….” in Four One-Hour Sessions by Wally P.

We will not just talk about the 12 Steps; we will do them together, just as the AA pioneers did back in the early days. As a group, we will complete all 12 steps in 4 to 5 one hour sessions to deepen our recovery, serenity, and inner peace.

Please download and print the workshop handouts prior to the first workshop session.

The link for the handouts and information on how to make any donations will be emailed privately.

Please note: the worksheets are copyrighted material and only for participants of the Back to Basics workshop. They are not for public distribution. Please do not distribute them without acknowledging their source.

Emotional Sobriety 12 Steps in 4 Hours has no dues or fees, but, we do have expenses. Contributions are greatly appreciated, so that this material can continue to be presented. Suggested donation: $5.00.

After our expenses have been covered, any remaining funds will be donated to Faith With Works.

We are looking forward to participating with you in this Recovery Workshop on Sunday.
